Abstract:
Various embodiments describe systems and processes for capturing and generating multi-view interactive digital media representations (MIDMRs). In one aspect, a method for automatically generating a MIDMR comprises obtaining a first MIDMR and a second MIDMR. The first MIDMR includes a convex or concave motion capture using a recording device and is a general object MIDMR. The second MIDMR is a specific feature MIDMR. The first and second MIDMRs may be obtained using different capture motions. A third MIDMR is generated from the first and second MIDMRs, and is a combined embedded MIDMR. The combined embedded MIDMR may comprise the second MIDMR being embedded in the first MIDMR, forming an embedded second MIDMR. The third MIDMR may include a general view in which the first MIDMR is displayed for interactive viewing by a user on a user device. The embedded second MIDMR may not be viewable in the general view.
Abstract:
Provided are terminal-free connectors for flexible interconnect circuits. A connector for connecting to a flexible interconnect circuit comprises a base comprising a housing chamber defined by at least a first side wall and a second side wall that are oppositely positioned about the base. A circuit clamp is coupled to the base via a first hinge, and is configured to move between a released position and a clamped position. A cover piece is coupled to the base via a second hinge, and is configured to move between an open position and a closed position. The circuit clamp is configured to secure the flexible interconnect circuit between the base and the circuit clamp in the clamped position. One or more protrusions on the circuit clamp are each configured to interface with a socket within the first or second side wall to secure the circuit clamp in the clamped position.
Abstract:
A connector for connecting a flexible interconnect circuit comprises a base comprising a first set of protrusions and a second set of protrusions. The first set of protrusions and second set of protrusions are configured to secure the flexible interconnect circuit at a first set of apertures and a second set of apertures of the flexible interconnect circuit, respectively. The first set of protrusions may be positioned at a first distance from the second set of protrusions on the base. The first set of apertures may be positioned on the flexible interconnect circuit at a second distance, greater than the first distance, from the second set of apertures. The base causes the flexible interconnect circuit into an arched configuration when the apertures are secured to the respective protrusions. The connector further comprises a cover piece configured to secure the flexible interconnect circuit in the arched configuration.
Abstract:
Provided are terminal-free connectors for flexible interconnect circuits. A connector comprises a housing chamber defined by at least a first side wall and a second side wall oppositely positioned about the base. An edge support is positioned at each of the first side wall and the second side wall. The edge supports allow for precise placement of the flexible interconnect circuit inside the housing chamber. A cover piece is coupled to the base via a first hinge, and is configured to move between a released position and a clamped position. The cover piece includes a clamp portion securing the flexible interconnect circuit against the edge supports in the clamped position. A slider may be configured to move between an extended position and an inserted position within the housing chamber, and may include a convex upper surface configured to urge the flexible interconnect circuit upwards in the inserted position.
Abstract:
According to various embodiments, an exoskeleton assembly is configured to be coupled to a wearer, and includes a plurality of members moving in unison with corresponding body segments of the wearer. A first member is adjustable in length and comprises: a first component, a second component. The assembly further comprises a first locking mechanism and a second locking mechanism, each configured to alternate between a locked position and unlocked position. When the first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism are in the respective unlocked positions, the first component and the second component are free to slide relative to each other thereby adjusting the length of the first member. When either the first locking mechanism or the second locking mechanism are in the respective locked positions, the first component and the second component are not free to slide relative to each other.
Abstract:
Provided are various mechanisms and processes for quantization of tree-based machine learning models. A method comprises determining one or more parameter values in a trained tree-based machine learning model. The one or more parameter values exist within a first number space encoded in a first data type and are quantized into a second number space. The second number space is encoded in a second data type having a smaller file storage size relative to the first data type. An array is encoded within the tree-based machine learning model. The array stores parameters for transforming a given quantized parameter value in the second number space to a corresponding parameter value in the first number space. The tree-based machine learning model may be transmitted to an embedded system of a client device. The one or more parameter values correspond to threshold values or leaf values of the tree-based machine learning model.
Abstract:
Provided are various systems and processes for last-mile delivery of real-time, on-demand orders for perishable goods. In one aspect, a method for operating an autonomous vehicle (AV) comprises receiving real-time perception data at a planner module located on the AV, and generating an initial motion plan based on the perception data. The AV is maneuvered along a constrained route based on the initial motion plan without user input. An alert condition is detected from the perception data, and a notification is displayed at an operator device, The notification includes a request for user input to adjust the initial motion plan. User input is received at the planner module and a modified motion plan is generated by adjusting the initial motion plan based on the user input. A virtual representation of objects identified by the AV is locally rendered for display at the operator device.
Abstract:
Provided are various mechanisms and processes for automatic computer vision-based defect detection using a neural network. A system is configured for receiving historical datasets that include training images corresponding to one or more known defects. Each training image is converted into a corresponding matrix representation for training the neural network to adjust weighted parameters based on the known defects. Once sufficiently trained, a test image of an object that is not part of the historical dataset is obtained. Portions of the test image are extracted as input patches for input into the neural network as respective matrix representations. A probability score indicating the likelihood that the input patch includes a defect is automatically generated for each input patch using the weighted parameters. An overall defect score for the test image is then generated based on the probability scores to indicate the condition of the object.

Abstract:
Provided are various systems and processes for improving last-mile delivery of real-time, on-demand orders for perishable goods. In one aspect, a method is provided for aggregating on-demand deliveries using a depot dispatch protocol which may implement automated order transport and retrieval systems. The method comprises dispatching merchant couriers to transport on-demand orders from merchants to a merchant depot where the orders are aggregated and batched based on optimized delivery routes and destination proximities. Batches of orders are then transported to a customer depot corresponding to an area of delivery destinations. Orders are then assigned to delivery couriers for completion of delivery to customers. Such delivery routing systems and processes may be implemented alongside a delivery tracking system for generating estimated time of arrival predictive updates for real-time delivery of perishable goods. The described mechanisms improve courier efficiency, improve delivery tracking, and reduce overall delivery times.
